Latrobe Elementary School

About this Grantee

To increase students’ letter knowledge and
phonological awareness as well as parents’ involvement in their
children’s education, Mrs. Hunter, Ms. Ferlin, and Ms. Welty create
literacy backpacks. Students bring home weekly backpacks with activities
that address a difficult literacy skill. Students demonstrate their
enhanced literacy skills by creating an illustrated rhyming book to keep
in their home library.
